About Me

I am a research physicist at a US government laboratory near Pittsburgh, PA, where I live with my wife of 31 years. I have received awards and recognition for my non-fiction writing, and while the three parts of Gennebar Rising are not my first book-length works, they are my first foray into fiction. They won’t be my last.

The story I have written reflects my lifelong love of science and my inexhaustible wonder at the natural world, my love of history, my Jewish ethnic roots, and my zeal for interrogating blind faith and revealed “truth” under the hot light of reason and evidence.

I give thanks to all of my readers for giving my work a try, and I wish to all of you a delightful and rewarding experience.
